Why did they trade Cena to RAW and Batista to SmackDown?
Bryan's on his deathbed tho or returning tomorrow. I don't know.

The first time I personally noticed the crowd really turning on Cena was the WM with HHH. The entire crowd turned on him and made HHH the face.
They had already turned on him and favoured Jericho, Christian and Angle over Cena before. Hell, Christian was really on fire back then and even selling loads of merch (more than Cena). But you know, he got shunted to the midcard literally because Vince doesn't like his face.
very generous to tlc for some reason, i also think he was a little too generous with that tag match since the ascension was involved
I think the great presentation of Bálor was included in that. Plus the hot crowd helped make the last few minutes really exciting.
If you go by this thread the man is going to be inducted in the WWE hall fame this year.
The truth is no one really knows. He wants to be back for Wrestlemania and there are rumors that could be possible.
His neck is fine. He just needs to get full strength in his arm back. He seems to be doing better because the 2nd surgery rumor has died out. He said in an interview if he was in MMA he could do a fight but in wrestling you need full strength to do a match.

God, that was like the only time I enjoyed Christian, and they shit on him super hard. It's crazy to think how many top and over guys they would have TODAY if they just didn't favor Cena over every single talent. Nobody is all that over because they don't allow them to get over.
Present the brass ring, tell them to grab it. Then when they try or do, you pull it away from them and punish them for it. It's fucked up over there, man. Or maybe they're just afraid of putting too much stock in other people and they'd ask for more money.
Watching that mania 21 match now
It's crazy seeing Cena looks the same, Cole calls the same stuff for Cena, and a few deeper voices calling for cena.
i think the main problem with nxt is that the main roster is constantly looming over it, you can get invested in the characters and the matches and everything, but you know most of them are completely fucked as soon as they get called up
rusev, the shield members, and wyatt to a much lesser extent are the only full sail nxt guys that are still okay

They should have Rusev/Reigns at Mania and give Reigns his first title run and all that jazz.
Or even better, have Rusev crush in 17 seconds.

I blame indy promotions...there was a time when kick outs were sacred when it comes down to finishers...nowadays your finisher don't mean shit :/

Man jim Ross and john pollock calling wrestle kingdom would have been rad
It was a boring as shit match and fans turned on him in a hurry. They were already turning on him by late May.

I like Striker on Lucha Underground, never heard of the other guy before (unless he's that painter dude).
You saying Captain Nash would be a bad thing?
Honestly it isn't a great match. Hearing Cena hit the "FU" and hearing him call JBL a bitch is so odd when compared to how he is presented today.

Sounds similar to how someone else is trying to be portrayed currently in the WWE....
Indeed...
I always felt that match was rushed to get Cena the damn belt. Now the I Quit match between those two was glorious...
It's like a 10 minute match in between this (lot of headlocks)
ewww...
Looking at the card now...I'm surprised this wasn't on the list of shitty WMs.
Angle and HBK is really good.
It's a shame that the brand split didn't really work.
You had PPV's every 2 months for each promotion and for Major PPV's you could join the cards and do cool stuff.
Kinda like how in baseball the All Star game was so special because unless the teams were in the world seres you weren't gonna see a player from a NL team go up against a player on an AL team.

Seems like it...if it wasn't for mitb, I probably forgot the ppv even existed.
I been meaning to see that match. I'll probably check it out since I'm going on a huge network binge since WWE gave me an ironclad commitment with their fucking service

The brand split was probably the best thing WWE ever done. For the young up and comers you had Smackdown, and for Triple H you had Raw.

Bragging rights was a pay per view that had a good concept, but came out 6 years too late.

the brand split was the best because of the raw v smackdown attitude that actually existed during that time. they were legitimately trying to outdo themselves

All I know from Bragging Rights is Bryan/Ziggler.
Would love to see them get a real feud.

This match was awesome, and they had matches the following Raw and Smackdown that were also very good
1. We have NXT so that kinda counts
2. It would never work today unless they have someone other than Dunn doing it. Shows need to have a different look. Its why the WWECW show sucked and why those first 2 PPVs are fucking great.
3. They can't pay for it today.
4. Their roster would have to increase by a ton.

Striker by himself is enough to negate any interest I had in paying the extra amount to have the Jim Ross commentary. NJPW World it is then.
